Homework Help vs. Building Math Skills: Why Students Often Need Both

Homework Help vs. Building Math Skills: Why Students Often Need Both

“Will the Mathnasium curriculum support my child’s daily school/homework math skills?” -is a question we get frequently. The answer is DEFINITELY!

The Mathnasium Method™ helps students practice their current schoolwork while also addressing any foundational gaps that may be causing difficulty. Brushing up on fundamental skills is always a benefit as students continue to progress in math.

Conversely, if your child is ready to get ahead in math, the Mathnasium Method™ builds number sense and mental math skills while guiding students through increasingly challenging topics, including algebra and geometry. Students not only learn how to do math, they learn why the math works and when to apply each strategy.

Expert Instructors Who Can Adapt to the Classroom

Our instructors are knowledgeable mathematicians who are trained in the Mathnasium Method™ and our proprietary curriculum. This allows them to work confidently across a wide range of math skills and grade levels while tailoring instruction to each individual student.

Just as importantly, our instructors can help students with their current classwork and homework using the approach their teacher expects. We understand that schools and teachers may introduce concepts in different ways, so our instructors can adapt to and reinforce the method being taught in the classroom while also helping the student understand the mathematics behind it.

This gives students the best of both worlds: support with what they are learning at school today, alongside a structured learning plan designed to build stronger math skills for tomorrow.

Here at Mathnasium of Simi Hills, we support students of ALL levels as they gain confidence, build understanding and momentum in math.
